Allahabad University Vice-Chancellor Sangita Srivastava has complained to the district magistrate that she is forced to wake up too early every day due to azan being recited on a loudspeaker, urging the official to take action.

In a letter written to DM Bhanu Chandra Goswami on March 3, the vice-chancellor said the azan or the call to prayer is played at 5.30 am through a loudspeaker installed at the mosque near her house.
